About
You can stream Houdini (1953) on MGM Plus with a subscription, rent on Apple TV+, or buy on Apple TV+.
By the early 1900s, the extraordinary Houdini earned an international reputation for his theatrical tricks and daring feats of extrication from shackles, ropes, handcuffs and... Scotland Yard's jails.
Forget the standard biopic tropes to find a whirlwind celebration of a man obsessed with the mechanics of deception. This period piece trades somber reflection for the kinetic energy of a stage magician constantly outrunning both the law and his own mortality.
